I entirely agree - the 6 month cycle creates massive pain for contributors
who think openstack is supposed to be a fast moving agile project. I have
co-incidentally just proposed we switch to a 2 month cycle, since we pretty
much have everything in place to achieve that with little fuss, since we
already do 3 milestone releases during that 6 month cycle.

Lets continue discussion in the separate thread, as many people probably
ignore this thread due to its [nova] tag and subject

Regards,
Daniel
